My doctoral project, Hublink - a online case management system designed with and built for a consortium of Voluntary Sector Organisations - has supported the advocacy and advice work of those organisations for 10 years. 

I was privileged to have the opportunity to present Hublink as a case study in the Participatory Design Conference (PDC)  2014 in Windhoek, Namibia, and it full findings at the PDC in Aarhus, 2016.

While at NDP Studio I was the lead developer on a new learning platform for the Royal College of Obsertricians and Gynaecologists and Product Lead for work on web and CRM integration for the Royal College of Paediatrics and Child Health.
